Mission-oriented Innovation Policies in Japan: focusing on function of intellectual property and technology transfer
Koichi Sumikura
Abstract
In the MOIP, key players of research and development are academic sectors, such as universities and public research
institutes, and industrial sectors, such as existing large companies and start-ups. Usually the players in academic sectors
cannot bring new knowledge into market for themselves. Therefore, in order to solve most of the social problems, it
is essential to actually make products and services based on new knowledge, by cooperation between academia and
industry. In this paper, function of intellectual property and technology transfer in social implementation of new
knowledge is discussed, Japanese policy surrounding it is reviewed and future tasks are described.
